BEHOLD!!!! Bump glory - with a full face view too!!! Yes, I am "relaxing" and bit and letting it all hang out hehe. On the plus side, I can still sleep on it.
Yep, it's quadrupled in size over like 2 weeks. Scary. You'll get to see the cause of said bump in a few days

 

[gigglebox]

buzzing brain happens when i'm awake...occurrences are weeks apart, not sure when the last one happened. i think when i had des. it lasts about 5 or 6 seconds. it compels me to tightly close my eyes and put my head down so i'm not sure if it causes a visual disturbance, but i think it might.

i'm sorry you're experiencing pain so early :/ come to think of it i had a pain that was a sore burning around the top right side of my bump, but i think it was around 25 weeks or so. it got worse before it got better, but did eventually go away...

i, too, hated my delivery experience. i didn't insta-bond either; that didn't really happen until i got home. but i did have the love for him in utero; i had a ton of concern for his health and i think that really made me care for him before he was here.

i am SO excited for 3d squee! i wanted to have it done but it's not included in normal scans and it's expensive. $150 for 15 minutes? no thanks.

still catching up...

EMERALD! that is a FABULOUS bump!!! looking great, and the glasses suit your face very well! i'm jealous, i just looked fat at 20 weeks. holy balls I am dying to know how big that girl is going to be...or how tall, i should say. future model? going to make mommy and daddy rich one day? we all know she's going to be gorgeous enough for it!

baby club. also known as intimidation land. and rude jude (anyone remember him?) time. 1000 opinions and hardly any courtesy to express them.

MOTHER EFFER, my damn J key just flew off again. fucking dog. he's on my shit list.

anyway baby club kinda helped me yesterday to get Des a good night of sleep! except it came with about 10 people telling me he's too young to sleep through the night (duh, i actually just asked for help getting him to wake up for one feed...suggestions, really). then one person told me to try swaddling. "worked a treat"! i got 8 hours with only a half hour break for a feed! and now he's sleeping in his swingy chair again...actually i'm going to throw a thank you at that person who suggested it then maybe catch an extra Z or two on my couch.

 

[..katie..]

Katie, I still think the sex toy may be the father...

Almost miss pregnancy, eh? I can most happily go back to paranoid freaked out complaining and make you remember how shit it was? Tee hee. Nah, apart from being uncomfortable and scared out of my wits, I'm sorta enjoying it a little, mainly when she kicks.

EDIT: or if I recall properly, perhaps a popsicle?

...an otterpop....it was an otterpop.

fml =D


I'm glad you're enjoying it. Like all things in life, it flies by, so enjoy it.
except thats kind of like me telling you to enjoy an amputation because, well, it'll be over soon.

*shudder*
yeah, i'm adopting next time.



On a sort of random off-subject, there was a question in baby club about puppies vs babies in the time and shit you put in them...

going week by week since I got my heeler versus since I birthed patrick...
Patrick has been MUCH easier and MUCH less expensive than Borris was...

OMFG YOU ARE SO FREAKING CUTE!!! OMG!! AAAH!!!!!!!!!

I almost hate you!!! You've got the cutest belly in the whole world!! And your face!!! AAH!!!

 

[..katie..]

laura, i totally expected you to get massive shit for going back to work. You didn't, and for that, I will not send the server down lol. i'm glad you got some sleep!

 

[..katie..]

Soooo, while we're on the subject of bonding and whatnot, I have a confession.

I dont feel very motherly towards patrick. I love him, its this weird feeling that I can't explain, and I like him because he does cute things, but mostly I sort of think of him as this new pet (im awful) who i'm teaching new tricks, that does best when kept occupied and not crying. Like, sometimes we look at each other like "who the fuck are you?"...
i'm not sad about it or anything, i'm sure the mom feeling will eventually come, but for right now, it's not here.

 

[..katie..]

AAANNNDDDD one more thing. this kid has been out in the real world for six weeks now. How is it possible that he still roots in the wrong direction?? O_O

 

[gigglebox]

i know what you mean about the mother thing; i was just telling troy that Des feel less like a child and more like an extravagant pet.

Swaddling works on Des? Tyler will throw a fittt if you swaddle him...

But tyler only wakes up once every 4 hours so i can get 8 hours with one break, I dont know what our secret is, he just does it 0.o

Patrick has been MUCH easier and MUCH less expensive than Borris was...

Tylers been much more work than Acer was as a puppy.... Acer had separation anxiety and potty training took a while but he at least didnt scream at me for a few hours ever...

K, so I have a half sister that my mom had before me. I was raised as the oldest because my half sister got taken away from my mom by her mother - it was a really bad circumstance and it happened while my mom had cancer .. anyhow a few years ago she said something to me about not ever feeling the same about Jessica (half sister) as she does about my brother and I.. She said she never really felt like "hers" .. Thats strange I guess, and Im not saying your family would EVER do that, but maybe its age? she was 19 when she had Jessica, 25 when she had me, 29 when she had my brother.. so IDK if its an age thing or what 0.o

Im sure the feeling will hit though .. Mitch sees tyler like a new pet, but he still feels daddyish too.. so IDK.. maybe you have guy brain I think I Feel mommylike because I do basically everything for him on my own so i feel like he couldnt survive if I wasnt here =/

 

[ashiozz]

K. I think Im all caught up.. Emerald! Your bump is gorgeous and so are you

I too only looked fat at 19 weeks so I am jealous also ... Im excited for 3D picture time

 

[gigglebox]

watching 16 & pregnant. it reminds me that contractions fucking hurt.

Des cannot hold a pacifier in his mouth for the life of him. i keep seeing everyone's babies with binkies and am jealous Des seems to like them, bu ti have to hold it in his mouth lol

silly babies!

dogs vet bills are stupid expensive. plus the cost of food (just thought of the end of every weight watchers commercial..."only 7 dollars a week! .....*whisper* plus the cost of food*). though Des' diapers and formula is mighty expensive. It'd be a lot cheaper if he breast fed.

SO glad Des isn't pooping and shitting on my floor! Not yet anyway. Also really glad I don't have to take him outside at all hours of the night.

Suddenly this baby thing isn't as daunting when i think of the puppy thing.

 

[ashiozz]

lmao, My dog just takes himself out to the backyard.. Vet bills DO suck.. Acer broke his leg.. well rather, my ex caused Acer to break his leg, when he was a puppy.. and I had t actually fight the vet to get them to X-ray his leg, they thought it was sprained, no, he shattered his growth plate to the tune of a $950 surgery.

Tyler hasn't done that yet, but Acer is kind of independent so he really doesn't require much of anything.. he doesnt yell at me at 3am for food, he doesnt have issues sleeping past 5am.. I Dont have to change his diapers a million times a day, when hes hungry, I dont have to make him a billion bottles a day, just feed him a can once... 0.o

Maybe my dog is low maintenance.. idk.. but my baby requires so much more.


16 and pregnant hits a lot closer to home now, but Im not 16 -- just.. labor sucks. Im scarred for life.

 

[..katie..]

16 and pregnant annoys me. I've always been mature for my age (also simultaniously immature, too.)...I guess it's because I hate teenage girls. A lot. A LOT.

Idk if its an age thing...Eh, regardless of maternal feelings or not, I love him, so I guess its good. I mean, if worst comes to worst, he'll grow up with a friend 20 years older than him. Granted, he needs a mother figure, but we'll figure this shit out one way or another.



Sooooooooo my mom gave patrick ice cream and mangos last night. I have changed 4 poopy diapers since 7 this morning (it's 10 now.)...no more ice cream.

 

[gigglebox]

yes, the dogs use the yard now, but my bitching was more remembering how it was to raise a puppy in an apartment. actually having both of them in an apartment sucks. i am so glad i have a fenced backyard now!

 

[ashiozz]

mitch fed Tyler ice cream the other day, and bbq sauce.. grr.. I was ready to eat his face.

Im sure you and patrick will for sure figure it out, I think he might need to be more interactive before you feel mommylike fully, if that makes sense, he's still floppy.. lmao

Hmm, Pacifiers, Tyler cant hold one in very long either, I have to keep replacing it for him >< gr.

 

[ashiozz]

Yes, I raised acer in apartments too.. But the only apartment I hated taking him outside at was one we moved into when I first got here and it was in a badd neighborhood, if mitch was at my house that night, i made him walk acer .. Scary.


a yard is amazing, though since I did all that trimming in my yard, i have discovered i have three extremely poisoness to dogs palm trees. and theyre short, so he can get to them =/ I read stories last night of dogs dying, but I rent this place and I cant remove the trees, so now Im trying to think of things I can do to make sure he stays away from them =/
